Can YOU spot the hidden Good King Wenceslas?

CHRISTMAS is just around the corner, and what better way to get into the festive spirit than attempting a mind-boggling brain teaser.

The latest puzzle to baffle the web sees a cheeky Good King Wenceslas hidden among a snow-capped wintry forest - and he's deviously difficult to spot.

Can you spot the Christmas character in the forest?

In a sea of green and white, the puzzle seems easy enough - but you'll need good eye-sight to spot him.

There are a number of confusing elements to the puzzle, such as blurred colours, dark shadows and a castle and Christmas wooden huts to distract the eye - and no, the man in red by the cabins is not the king.

Social media users can't get enough of these optical illusions online, and this latest is created by Optical Express.
